Attach the Tangerine Tango Top Note die using a stapler.  Staple through both layers from back to front.  The DSP will hide the edges of the staple that often snag fingers.

Trim the DSP along the perforated lines on the die cut out and use Multipurpose Liquid Glue to attach it to the front of your package.

I think I could have stepped it up a notch if I would have used Pacific Point for the flower layer instead of Kiwi Kiss.  I might just have to use dental floss and remove the top two layers of the flower.  Dental floss???  What is she talking about?  Check out THIS YouTube video, dental floss isn't just for your teeth.  Oh, how I LOVE the internet!
 

I think the card look better with a Pacific Point layer. Do you agree?

 

Lovely as a Tree

I have actually been making cards but I can't seem to get a good picture of them - so frustrating.  I do have a card to share with you today.
